IID Sampling from Intractable Distributions [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We propose a novel methodology for drawing iid realizations from any target distribution on the Euclidean space with arbitrary dimension. No assumption of compact support is necessary for the validity of our theory and method. Our idea is to construct an appropriate infinite sequence of concentric closed ellipsoids, represent the target distribution as

PLoS ONE, 2015 Background Despite control efforts, salmonellosis continues to cause an estimated 1.2 million infections in the United States (US) annually. We describe the incidence of salmonellosis in the US and introduce a novel approach to examine the epidemiologic ...

Landscape phage, phage display, stripped phage, biosensors, detection, affinity reagent, nanotechnology, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus anthracis [PDF]
Dans European Nano Systems Worshop - ENS 2005, Paris : France
(2005), 2007 Filamentous phage, such as fd used in this study, are thread-shaped bacterial viruses. Their outer coat is a tube formed by thousands equal copies of the major coat protein pVIII. We constructed libraries of random peptides fused to all pVIII domains and selected phages that act as probes specific for a panel of test antigens and biological threat ...

The SIR model in a moving population: propagation of infection and herd immunity [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In a collection of particles performing independent random walks on $\mathbb Z^d$ we study the spread of an infection with SIR dynamics. Susceptible particles become infected when they meet an infected particle. Infected particles heal and are removed at rate $\nu$.

Survival of Salmonella spp. in Composting using Vial and Direct Inoculums Technique [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 The survival of Salmonella spp. as pathogen indicator in composting was studied. The inoculums technique was used to gives the known amounts of Salmonella spp. involved in composting. The inoculums of Salmonella spp. solution was added directly into the compost material. The direct inoculum was compared with inoculums in vial technique.

Entropy driven formation of a chiral liquid crystalline phase of helical filaments [PDF]
, 2005 We study the liquid crystalline phase behavior of a concentrated suspension of helical flagella isolated from {\it Salmonella typhimurium}. Flagella are prepared with different polymorphic states, some of which have a pronounced helical character while others assume a rod-like shape. We show that the static phase behavior and dynamics of chiral helices

Enumeration of Salmonella in compost material by a non-culture based method [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Accurate enumeration of Salmonella spp. is important for assessing whether this pathogen has survived composting. Recent literature has reported that enumeration of Salmonella spp. using standard microbiological methods has a numbers of disadvantages, particularly the time taken to obtain a result.

CRISPR Typing and Subtyping for Improved Laboratory Surveillance of Salmonella Infections
PLoS ONE, 2012 Laboratory surveillance systems for salmonellosis should ideally be based on the rapid serotyping and subtyping of isolates. However, current typing methods are limited in both speed and precision.
